I'd rather overspend on national security than underspend but it's not truly about that. Just lining more pockets while deceiving conservatives and "Boot In Your Ass" Republicans into thinking we need all that manufacturing.

How about redirecting a few billies to supplement the wack nature of the health insurance companies?
I would agree with you. We need to slash military spending from 750bn to 400bn. I don't mind us adding 10 new subs, but we should decommission some old warships and reuse steel/resources from them in these subs to save some money. Or sell some of the older ships to our allies like in Japan or India and let them take some of the duties to assist us against China in the Pacific
